For reasons that will become obvious when you view the videos, please also provide your audience with the following disclaimer:
Some of the video enactments you are about to see portray "less than optimal" mediator performance. Rest assured that you are not at risk by hiring any of the ADR Institute Players as neutrals (or lawyers), despite what you see on the tape.

The videos are fictional reenactments of the mediations underlying the published litigated cases. The "scripts" were developed solely by reading the written trial or appellate court decision - by no means a perfect window into what actually happened in a particular case.

Feel free to use these videos in your teaching and training. There is no charge for use; we ask only that you notify the Hamline Dispute Resolution Institute that you are using the videos and describe the context. Whenever the videos are shown, please attribute them in the following way: Produced by Professor James Coben and the Minnesota State Bar Association.
